12 US 2017/ A1 Aug. 3, 2017 HAT VENTILATED THROUGH BRIM TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to headwear, and in particular to ventilated headwear. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 0002 Hats worn in hot weather keep the sun off of people's heads can warm up the wearer's head by trapping generated heat. There have been many attempts to produce headwear that keep the wearer's heads cool by providing air flow to the wearer's head For example, U.S. Pat. No. 7,398,560 for a Hat/ visor with Brim Vent describes headwear, such as a hat, cap, or visor, with a headband and a brim extending out wardly. The hat includes a crescent shaped opening defined by an inner portion of the brim and an external leading edge of the headband that provides venting at the base of the visor U.S. Pat. No. 6,880,176 for Headgear describes an improved headgear includes an outer shell and an inner liner providing a head receiving cavity. A headband has a forward portion and lateral portions secured to the inner liner and a rearward portion extending rearward of said lateral portions. A first vent aperture is centrally formed in the outer shell. A second vent aperture is centrally formed in the inner liner. Third vent apertures are formed in the inner liner in spaced relationship with the second vent aperture U.S. Pat. No. 6, for a Selectively Remov able Device to Promote Circulation of Air into and Out of a Hat describes a device that allows air to circulate. The device has a base having an arcuate first side and a second side. The second side has a rib extending from the second side. The device also has a Surface adapted for attaching the base to a hat. Air enters at the base of the visor next to the head U.S. Pat. No. 6,317,896 for a Headgear describes an improved headgear that includes an outer shell and an inner liner providing a head receiving cavity. A headband has a forward portion and lateral portions secured to the inner liner and a pair of rearward extending flexible mem bers having interconnecting free end portions that allow the headband to be adjusted to many heads of different length. A fabric lining covers the headband forward and lateral portions and has slot openings through which the headband flexible members extend. An adjustable opening at the top of the fabric lining facilitates headgear vertical adjustment. A pair of side retention straps extend downwardly from the sides of the outer shell. A pair of rear retention straps mount to respective ones of the side retention straps and are adjustably secured to each other. The inner liner has chan nels that receive the side retention straps and allow them to drape down in close proximity to a wearer's temples and cheeks U.S. Pat. No. 5,487,191 for a Vented Visor Cap' describes a cap or hat having a visor for permitting a flow of air through the visor, thereby precluding unintentional removal of the cap by wind currents. The cap has a visor extending outwardly therefrom, with the visor having a semi-circular aperture extending therethrough. A venting assembly extends across the visor aperture and is secured to forward and lateral edges of the visor aperture only, thereby allowing a trailing edge of the venting assembly to be fluidly biased out of the plane of the visor such that a pressure differential across the visor is reduced. The flow of air through the visor is perpendicular to the plane of the visor U.S. Pat. No. 5,157,788 for a Ventilated, Heat Attenuating Headwear describes a ventilated, heat attenu ating hat including an inner mesh section that has a crown portion for engaging the crown of a wearer's head and a pair of side portions connected to the crown portion for engaging the sides of the wearer's head. There is an outer mesh section interconnected to the inner mesh section for covering at least a portion of the inner mesh section. A channel is formed between the inner and outer mesh sections for allowing air to flow freely therethrough. The outer mesh section includes a metallized fabric for reflecting away from the hat a significant of Solar radiation that strikes the outer mesh section U.S. Pat. No. 4, for a Ventilating Helmet shows a ventilating helmet which takes the form of sheet material wall member which has mounted thereon an elec trically operated fan which is adapted to move air to the interior of the helmet. The electrically operated fan is to be operated through the use of a light sensitive, electrical energy producing cell. This cell is to be directly exposed to the source of light energy U.S. Pat. No. 4,292,689 for a Visored Hat Con struction describes a visor having an open cell construction that blocks sunlight from the wearer's eyes. O011 U.S. Pat. Pub. 2009/ describes a hat hav ing a water absorbing material sandwiched in the brim or other portion of the hat. As the water evaporates through vents, cooling the region of the hat against the wearer's head U.S. Pat. Pub. 2012/ to Ramer for Utilis ing an Airfoil Effect for Inducing Cooling in a Baseball Cap, A.K.A. Air Cap describes a hat having two brims, which is claimed to create an airfoil effect between the two brims. The hat includes a normal-sized main visor or bill in the front with a crown of material over the head, the main bill being deliberately curved upwards where it is attached to the crown. The hat also includes a short, flat, second bill placed underneath the main bill, with the second bill attached to the interior brim of the cap at the back of the bill. The second bill is also attached to the main visor on the sides and a gap exists between the two bills from front to back Another cap is the Airpeak by Builmatel of Japan. The Airpeak includes an conspicuous opening in the center, not the front of the brim. The prominent opening severely affects the aesthetics of the cap Some prior art caps include a large air intake on the top of the brim, which many wearer's may not find aestheti cally displeasing. (0015. Designs for ventilated hats include U.S. Des. Pat. No. D670,891 for a Ventilated Hat which shows a circular hard hat with a hanging screen on the back no front visor. A bill extends all the way around with a fan in the front, blowing down towards the forehead. In U.S. Des. Pat. No. D670,034 for a Vented Construction Hard Hat, shows vents entirely in the crown of the hat. U.S. Des. Pat. No. D623,831 for a Ventilated Hat with a Sunshade Brim shows venting around the head. U.S. Des. Pat. No. D for a Ventilated Hat shows venting is at the top, with front-to-back Strips covering front-to-back openings under neath. U.S. Des. Pat.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 0032 Some embodiments effect little or no change to the aesthetics of a conventional hat. For example, in an embodi ment that comprises a baseball cap-type hat with a brim through which air can flow, the gap in the brim through which airflows may be sufficiently thin that the brim appears to be a normal hat brim. The gap may be covered with a thin fabric that allows air to flow and that hides the gap, contributing to maintaining the appearance of a conventional hat. The gap height, that is, the distance between the bottom surface of the upper brim and the upper surface of the lower brim, through which the air can flow, can vary in different embodiments. A small gap provides a more conventional appearance of the hat which can improve the aesthetics of the hat. A larger gap height provides increased airflow. The invention is not limited to a particular gap height. In some embodiments, the gap may as Small as /s of an inch or Smaller or as large as one inch or larger. A typical gap height would be between about /4 inch to about /2 inch The brim comprises a single brim with a gap within the single brim. Single brim embodiments of the present invention include primarily a single upper Surface exposed to the air and a single lower Surface exposed to the air, with an interior gap between the upper Surface and the lower surface. Minor variation in the lengths of the extension of the upper surface and the lower surface are still within the scope of the definition of a single brim. A "double brim by contrast, such as the hat described in US Pat. Pub. 2012/ , includes two independent bills, each having an upper exterior Surface and a lower exterior Surface that are exposed to the environment. The single brim has a more pleasing appearance than the double brim hat, and appears more like a convention cap Moreover, the upper and lower elements of the brim extend outward from the wearer's head by the same amount or by approximately the same amount, that is, to within 1 inch, more preferably to within /2 inch, even more preferably to within /4, and most preferably to within /s of an inch. The upper and lower brim element of the single brim are approximately the same size, that is, the upper brim element and the lower brim elements have approximately the shape and are, but are displaced from each other by the brim gap. The distance between the upper and lower ele ments of the single brim is preferably approximately con stant. The curvatures of the upper and lower brim elements are preferably approximately the same FIG. 1 shows a partially cut-away view a cross section of a hat 100 that includes a brim 102 having a lower brim element 104 and an upper brim element 106 spaced apart from the lower brim element 104 to create a brim gap 108. Hat 100 includes a crown 120 including a lower crown ventilation portion 122 that includes multiple spacers 128 forming a crown gap 126 through which air flow can be guided by spacers 128. Air enters the brim gap 108 from the front and/or sides of the brim and at least some of the air is conveyed around the side and towards the rear of the wearer's head through lower crown ventilation portion 122. Between the brim 102 and crown 120 is a transition region 130 in which air from the brim moves into the lower crown ventilation portion 122 and/or toward the front of the wearer's head. Vent holes 132 allows air from lower crown ventilation portion 122 to exit toward the wearer's head.

14 US 2017/ A1 Aug. 3, In some embodiments, spacers or air flow guides within the brim or crown comprise a single material that extends through the brim and/or sides and into the crown. In other embodiments, the brim air flow guides stop at the back of the brim and crown air flow guides start at the front and/or side of the crown. Other embodiments may lack lower crown ventilation portion 122, and may deliver air at the rear of the brim directly to the wearer's head. Air flow through the brim may be caused by a breeze, by movement of the wearer, or by convection, rather than being driven by a powered device. Such as a fan. In some embodiments, the entire hat 100, including brim 102 and crown 120, are permanently joined together. In other embodiments, brim 102 and lower crown ventilation portion 122 comprise one unit and a replaceable hat cover includes the remainder of the crown For aesthetic purposes, the crown 102 is relatively thin. Preferably less than /2" thick, more preferably less than 3/8" thick, and most preferably around 4" thick. Gap 108 can be covered with a mesh or cloth that is thin enough to pass air into the brim gap, but that hides the opening of gap 108. A sheer fabric, such as a diaphanous fabric which is made using thin thread and/or low density of knit can cover the gap FIG. 2 shows hat 100 with upper brim element 106 removed to show multiple spacers or brim air flow guides 210 positioned in the brim gap 108. The passages allow air to flow from the front or sides of the brim to the back of the brim and into the crown. Channels 212 are defined between the brim air guides 210. The air flow passages have a width defined in the direction normal to the air flow. In some embodiments, the width of at least one of the air flow passages decreases and then increases from the front of the brim and to the back of the brim. That is, channel 212 alternately narrows and then widens, which is thought to increase the air flow to the user's head. In other embodi ments, the brim is formed of multiple parallel passage. The gap between the upper brim and the lower brim can be maintained, for example, by a corrugated material that provides multiple air passages using, for example, multiple thin members extending from upper brim to the lower brim. In other embodiments, the upper brim and lower brim elements are sufficiently rigid that the gap is maintained without the use of spacers or other spacers within the brim FIG. 4A shows a bottom perspective view of the inside of a hat 400. Brim 402 has air passages (not visible) that lead to air holes 404 under crown 406. Air from the brim travels through passages in the brim and exits through air holes 404 into a gap between the crown the wearer's head. In some embodiments, airflow guides in the crown channel the air from one or more vent holes 404 to spread the air around and over the wearer's head. FIG. 4B shows an alternative design of vents 410 at the inside front of the crown. FIG. 4C shows another alternative design in which the air holes comprise triangular vents 412. An opening 420 at the back of the hat and openings 422 in the crown allow air to exit. The embodiment of FIG. 4A does not include a lower crown ventilation portion 122, so all the air is deliv ered near the front of the crown FIG. 5 shows another hat 500 with a crown 502 having an upper crown portion 504 and a lower crown portion 506, and a brim 510 having a lower brim portion 514 and an upper brim portion, which has been removed to show air guides 516 that define air passage 518. Some of air guides 516 extend through the brim 510 and into the crown 502 to conduct air from the front or side of the brim through air passage and into brim air passage 518 around the wearer's head (not shown). Each guide can be constructed from a single length of material that extends through from the front of the brim and into the crown, or the brim guide can terminate at the end of the brim and the crown guides can be constructed of separate pieces of material in the brim, with the guides in the brim and the crown aligning to conduct air smoothly through the brim and into the crown. Hat 500 can be constructed as one piece or the upper crown portion 504 and upper brim portion can be formed as a removable hat COVer 0041 FIG. 6A shows an embodiment that comprises a base portion 600, referred to as a WindBrimTM over which a removable cover, 650 (FIG. 6B), referred to as a Wind SkinTM, is mounted. Base portion 600 includes a brim portion 602 and side extension portions 604 that extends from the brim portion 602 on either side of the wearer's head (not shown) toward the back. Brim portion 602 includes an upper brim portion 606 and a lower brim portion 608 separated by a spacer (not shown) to form a brim gap 610 having a front opening 612 and optional size opening 614. The spacer may comprise multiple airflow guides, examples of which are shown in FIG. 2. Air enters the brim gap 610 from the front or the side of the brim and at least some of the air travels through the side extensions 604 and out through holes Extensions 604 include air guides 622 that define air passages 626 to guide some of the air from the brim portion 602 toward holes 628 toward the rear of extensions 604. Removable cover 650 includes a brim portion 652 and a crown portion 654. The two extensions 604 are essentially mirror images of one another. Brim portion 652 includes a pocket (not shown) that slips over brim portion 602 of base 600. Brim portion 652 includes an opening in the front aligned with front opening 612 in brim portion 602 and optionally, openings in the sides aligned with side openings 614 of base 600. Alternatively, the portion of brim portion 652 that covers openings 612 and 614 may be constructed of a thin fabric that allows the passage of air, yet visibly obscures the openings in brim portion Crown portion 654 also include pockets (not shown) to accept extension portion 604. Brim portion 652 is preferably formed of a non-rigid material. Such as an unre inforced fabric. Brim portion 602, which is more rigid, provides shape to, and supports, brim portion 652 when mounted. Similarly, crown portion is formed of a non-rigid material, such as an unreinforced fabric. Crown portion 654 may be similar in construction to the crown portion of a conventional cap, although crown portion 654 includes a pocket or other connector for connecting crown portion 654 to base ) Multiple replaceable covers 650 allow a user to change the appearance of a hat without having to replace the base FIG. 6C is a front view of an example of a brim opening 610, showing lower brim portion 606 and upper brim portion 608. Spacers 660 maintain the air gap 610. Spaces 660 are shown as corrugated. In other embodiments, spacers 660 may be solid. Spacers 660 not only maintain the gap 610, they may also direct air within brim 602. FIG. 3 is a front view of a hat 300 showing lower brim element 304,

15 US 2017/ A1 Aug. 3, 2017 an upper brim element 306 spaced apart from the lower brim element by air flow guides 308 to create a brim gap FIG. 7A shows a base portion or a brim frame 700 similar to that shown in FIG. 6A and having a brim portion 702 and a crown base 704 that includes a crown stub portion 705 that extends upwards at an angle from the brim portion 702, and side extensions 706 that extend rearward toward the back of the wearer's head. An upper brim portion 720 and a lower brim portion 722 are separated by brim spacers 710 (shown in dotted lines as they are hidden by upper brim portion 720) to provide a brim gap 712. Similarly, crown base 704 includes an inner portion 726 and outer crown portion 728, separated by crown base spacers 714 (shown in dotted lines as they are hidden) to maintain a gap in the crown base 704. Brim spacers 710 may define air passages 711 with the brim gap 712 and crown base spacers 714 may define air passages 715 within the crown base gap. Air flows through brim portion 702 to crown base 704, some of the air flowing through side extensions 706 to the wearer's head and some of the air flowing through crown stub portion 705 to the wearer's head FIG. 7B a replaceable hat cover 740 with a brim portion 742 shown separated from a crown portion 744 to illustrate how the brim frame 700 is inserted into a pocket' in the rear of brim portion 742. Arrows 750A of FIG. 7A and corresponding arrow 750B of FIG. 7B show the motion to insert the brim frame 700. Flap portion 746 of replaceable hat cover 740 can form a sleeve through which side exten sions 706 can be inserted to attach replaceable hat cover 740 to a brim frame 700. The sleeve can be sown into flap portion 746 or the sleeve can be formed by attaching flap portion 746 to the inside of crown portion 744, such as by Sowing or by using a fastener. Such as VelcroR itself. So that the sleeve is formed between flap portion 746 and the inside of crown portion 744. The sleeve does not need to be closed for the entire length, as long as there is at least one closed loop through which extension portion 706 can be inserted. The sleeve preferably opens for easy insertion of the side extensions 706 after insert of brim portion 702 into the brim portion 742 and then closes to secure side extensions 706. FIG. 7C shows removable hat cover 740 with flap 746 and brim portion FIGS. 8A, 8B and 8C show another embodiment of a hat 800 that includes an air scoop 802 for scooping up air into the interior of hat 800. Inside the hat, the air can be conducted through air passages, such as air passages 126 in FIG. 1 and air passages 626 in extension 604 (FIG. 6A). People who wear eyeglasses, including Sunglasses, will Sometimes rest their glasses on the top of a hat when not in use. Hole 804 provides a place for insertion of the temple tips of eyeglasses. This provides stability for the eyeglasses supported on the top of the hat Not every embodiment will include both side extensions and a crown portion to provide air both the top and to the side of the wearer's head. Embodiments can include one or both portions FIGS. 9A and 9B show a hat on a wearer s head. Items not labelled in FIGS. 9A and 9B are similar to those shown on earlier figures. FIGS. 9A and 9B show that the crown sits loosely and slightly away from the wearer's head, which allows air to flow over the wearer's head. Optionally, spacers 902 keep a portion of the crown off the wearer's head to allow air that has passed through the brim gap over the wearer's head. The crown stub portion 705 keep the cloth crown spaced from the wearer's head to provide space for air from the brim to flow between the crown and the wearer's head. That is, when the replaceable hat cover 740 is placed over the brim frame, the thickness of the crown stub portion of the brim frame keeps the hat cover offset from the wearer's head. Where the replaceable hat cover extends past the crown stub portion, the offset provides a gap 904 through which air can flow. Because the replaceable hat cover is flexible, the gap will not be uniformly maintained all around the wearer's head. The crown portion of the replaceable hat cover will likely contact the wearer's head in multiple places, but the fit between the crown portion of the replace able hat cover and the wearer's head is sufficiently loose to provide gaps through which air can flow over the wearer's head. In some embodiments, spacers may maintain the crown portion of the replaceable hat cover off the wearer's head to provide space for airflow. In some embodiments, a lip or other structure at the rear of the brim keeps the crown portion away from the wearer's head to facilitate air flow over the wearer's head FIG. 10 shows a hat 1002 having a removable brim cover 1004 that attaches to the upper brim 1006 and is retained by retainers 1008, which can be, for example, hook and loop fasters, with the one element on the upper brim and the mating element on the brim cover. Interchangeable brim covers 1004 allow a user to change the aesthetics of the hat 10O FIGS. 11A and 11B are wire frame drawings that show another embodiment of a base portion 1100 that includes a brim portion 1102, a crown portion 1104 that extends upward from the brim portion and side portions 1106 that extend rearward from the crown portion FIG. 11B shows a portion of the base portion 1100 of FIG. 11A from a different angle. Like the base portions of FIG. 1 and FIGS. 9A and 9B, the base portion is configured to receive a replaceable hat cover, such as hat cover 740 (FIG. 7), which includes a portion for receiving brim portion 1102, covering crown portion 1104, and extending over the wear ers head like a conventional cap. The base portion provides passages for air to flow from the front and/or sides of the brim onto the front and side of the wearer's head under the crown of the hat. In some embodiments, the hat cover is replaceable, allowing the appearance of the hat to be changed while retaining the base portion. In other embodi ments, the hat portion is permanently attached to the base portion Brim portion 1104 includes air guide-spacers 1110 that separate an upper brim element 1111 from a lower brim element 1113 and guide airflow through a gap 1115 in the brim. Additionally, spacers 1112 at the front of brim portion 1102 assist in the separation of the upper brim element from the lower brim element. Spacers/air guides 1114 in the crown portion 1104 separate a front surface 1120 of crown portion 1104 from a rear surface 1122 of crown portion 1104 to provide a path for the passage of air. Air flows from the front and/or side of the brim, through the brim portion, and through the crown portion. Oval openings 1124 allow air to flow from crown portion 1104 and side portions 1106 to the wearer's head to cool the wearer. In manufacturing a cap, the crown portion is typically formed by sewing together mul tiple pie-shaped panels. Eyelets and a Sweat band are typi cally sewed into the crown, which is then attached to the brim portion. The upper element of the brim and the lower element of the brim are typically parallel and spaced apart.

16 US 2017/ A1 Aug. 3, 2017 When the brim is bent, the upper and lower portions would tend to converge, reducing or eliminating the gap between them and reducing the air flow through the brim. To prevent the constriction, one or more joints can be formed in the upper brim, the lower brim or both brims. Joint 1130 is shown in FIG. 11A. FIG. 12 shows a base portion 1100 as seen from the bottom. Joint 1130 is visible in brim portion 1102 includes a joint 1204 to facilitate manufacturing.
